If you liked Drop Dead Diva (before the mother gets a shot in her g spot aka it jumped the shark), you will also like Not Dead Yet. Yes because they both deal with supernatural topics, but mostly because they're both done in a very lighthearted shallow tone. And I mean shallow in only the best sense of the word. There's nothing dark or frightening here. The writing is a little better than Diva because in NDY, every once in a while, the humor within a line and the actors' deliveries take me by surprise and I literally laugh out loud. I also liked the meet-cute with Nell's roommate Edward, realizing he will become her love interest. Gina Rodriguez, Hannah Simone (from New Girl), Lauren Ash, Rick Glassman, and Josh Banday, Maile Flanagan and Jimmy Belinger are all on. Point. With strong acting, the tone of this genre, and in-the-moment comedic choices. The actors. Angela Elayne Gibbs and Martin Mull are more part of the poignant c story older couple transcendent romance and are masters of their craft. I hope there's a Season 2!
